• Be aware of people or pets that could enter your activity space without you or your Meta Quest
detecting their presence. Take appropriate steps before using your Meta Quest to prevent
them from entering your space, especially those who may not understand that your perception
is limited (for example, children).
• Consider having another person act as a spotter while you move around in virtual content.
• Use with glasses may increase risk of facial injury if you fall or hit your face.
• Use in a moving vehicle such as a car, bus, plane or train may increase your susceptibility to
adverse symptoms due to variations in speed or sudden movements ( Discomfort and
Other Physical Symptoms). It may also increase the likelihood of injury or property damage.
Hazards to Avoid. Some hazards that you should identify and avoid when setting up your
activity space or using your Meta Quest include:
• Walls, doors, windows, stairs, balconies, ramps and doorways
• Furniture (like coffee tables), lamps, loose rugs and uneven flooring
• People (especially young children) and pets
• Glass or mirrored tabletops and furniture
• Liquids, open flames and sources of heat
(like candles, fireplaces or heating/cooking devices)
• Ceiling fans, light fixtures and columns
• Televisions, monitors and other electronic devices
Not for use outdoors. Using your Meta Quest outdoors may allow
additional and uncontrolled hazards to arise (for example, uneven/slippery
surfaces, weather conditions and unexpected objects/vehicles/people/animals). Water and
other outdoor elements may damage your Meta Quest or impair its operation. You may not be
able to create a consistently safe environment. Your Meta Quest may not work properly outdoors
and may not be able to track your position. Lighting conditions that are too bright or dim may
prevent your Meta Quest’s sensors and navigation safety features from working optimally, and
may lead to tracking loss. Navigation Safety Features
Interacting With the Physical World
Virtual boundaries. Follow on-screen instructions to define your activity space. Virtual
boundaries do not physically stop you or others (people, pets, objects) from entering or
leaving your activity space. A virtual boundary may not alert you fast enough if you are
moving quickly. Set your boundaries so that you will be safe based on the content and
movement you plan to use.
• The virtual boundary system does not have an overhead boundary, so choose activity spaces
without overhead hazards.
